Description

American pilot (1907-1995) best remembered for a 1938 navigational 'error' (now widely believed to have been a purposeful protest against government red tape) that landed him in Dublin instead of his stated destination of California. Vintage glossy 7 x 9 full-length photo of Douglas 'Wrong Way' Corrigan inspecting the wing of his aircraft, signed neatly in black ink, “Douglas Corrigan.” The reverse bears a 1938 Associated Press Photo stamp. In very good to fine condition, with scattered light creasing, primarily to the edges.
